What Is Love
What is love?
We live in a generation where
sex is easy to find
yet when it comes to love
we struggle.
We're so attracted to the opposite
and to the new
but each time we wonder why
one of us always leaves
broken and with walls
higher than the last
We claim that the past hurts
and we have scars from those
that just didn't work
so how come we always reach for the same
lies and betrayal?
We say love is nothing more but
a broken record
this is another false statement of
a lost generation
we in fact are the broken record
not love
love itself is beautiful
love is knowing the person you are with
understands you more on a mental level
than they could ever care to know you on a
physical crave
love is spending your forever with your best friend
without the need of labels
or acceptance
love is simply love
